  2. What if all governments could be convinced to levy an #eWaste fee on all sales of digital devices, and used a decent chunk of the collected funds to give grants for research into #FreeHardwareDesigns? That could make devices easier to maintain, repair, upgrade, recycle, and manufacture closer to the point of use. All of which helps reduce eWaste and other environmental impacts.

  4. @b3yond @jeroenpraat have you looked into the #Serval project?
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serval_P

    It's targeted at situations like disaster recovery, where there is no cell network available. Could also be useful for teams of activists setting up comms they control? AFAIK all the components are #FreeCode / #FreeHardwareDesigns.
